Identify the frequency of the CPU consumption. Understand if there's any pattern, which means CPU usage is consistent, inconsistent, random, sporadic, or has regular spikes. Check if there's any activity, such as running specific tasks or services active, running monitoring applications, or running scripts leading to WmiPrvse.exe or Winmgmt high CPU. It's important to note when, how, and the frequency of the CPU consumption.Īssess the situation by understanding if the CPU consumption is high during a specific time. This involves mainly observing the overall CPU consumption and the PID identified. Winmgmt is hosted under the svchost.exe process with PID 2752. In the example, out of three WmiPrvse.exe instances, PID 3648 is located, which consumes around 25% of CPU usage. Right-click the service and select Go to details to locate the svchost.exe process as follows: Go to Task Manager > Services, sort by Name, and locate the Winmgmt service. This screenshot shows Services Host: Windows Management Instrumentation ( svchost.exe hosting the Winmgmt service) and its CPU utilization.
This screenshot shows multiple instances of WMI Provider Host (the WmiPrvse.exe process) as active and its CPU utilization. Go to Task Manager > Details, then sort by Name and locate the WmiPrvse.exe process that's consuming high CPU usage.
You may have to manually add the PID column to view the process ID of all the processes in Task Manager.
